President Paul von Hindenburg issued a manifesto, paying tribute to the reich's war dead. He said:
“With unchangirT fidelity, I greet those who were bereaved and all my comrades in the great war. Their sacrifices of life and health in the war demanded by Germany were not in vain—Germany is rising from the depths of that defeat to a new national power and greatness in spirit”
Reichstag Sessions To Open
The reichstag opening ceremony will be in the Garrison Church at Potsdam, but regular session*- are to be held in Berlin, at the Kroll Opera house, opposite the reichstag building, until repairs of damage done in the recent reichstag fire can be completed. They may require months.
A report from Potsdam said that political police had made a fruitless search for arms in the villa owned by Prof. Albert Einstein, scientist, who sailed for Holland from New York recently. (Einstein, prior to sailing, said he and Frau Einstein intended to remain outside Germany during the present anti-Jewish campaign.)

Forensists Will Meet Pacific U. Speakers
Clinton Jones and James Jacobs will represent S.C. in a decision debate with Pacific university tonight In Porter hall of the Law building on the subject “Resolved: that the United States Should Agree to the Cancellation of the Inter-Allied War Debts.’’ The Trojan debaters will uphold the affirmative side of the question.
Frank Clomensen, debate coach at Franklin high school, will be the sole judge of the contest. S.C. will return the visit of Pacific university when Lawrence Pritchard and Ames Crawford speak at Forest Grove, Oregon, March 29, on the negative side of the subject.
(Ed. note: The following document, recently excavated in the archives of the British museum by Dr. G. G. Pilsen-Pilsen of the famous Hoffbrau Christian and Agricultural college of Hoffbrau, Germany, will be of great interest to the students of S.C. because of the impending production of Jonson's ‘The Alchemist.” It is obviously a protest by certain Puritanical Englishmen of the early 17th centuiy against what they feel to be a vicious, unworthy, and utterly reprehensible performance of this play in their own time.)

Forensists Will Meet Pacific U. Speakers
Clinton Jones and James Jacobs will represent S.C. in a decision debate with Pacific university tonight In Porter hall of the Law building on the subject “Resolved: that the United States Should Agree to the Cancellation of the Inter-Allied War Debts.’’ The Trojan debaters will uphold the affirmative side of the question.
Frank Clomensen, debate coach at Franklin high school, will be the sole judge of the contest. S.C. will return the visit of Pacific university when Lawrence Pritchard and Ames Crawford speak at Forest Grove, Oregon, March 29, on the negative side of the subject.
(Ed. note: The following document, recently excavated in the archives of the British museum by Dr. G. G. Pilsen-Pilsen of the famous Hoffbrau Christian and Agricultural college of Hoffbrau, Germany, will be of great interest to the students of S.C. because of the impending production of Jonson's ‘The Alchemist.” It is obviously a protest by certain Puritanical Englishmen of the early 17th centuiy against what they feel to be a vicious, unworthy, and utterly reprehensible performance of this play in their own time.)
